Wish we had more time to chat….was such a treasure sharing the gardens of Toronto Island with all ya’ll!
Laurin–Great to see you in Toronto, I’m looking forward to enjoying your blog.
Have a great trip. Weather’s improving.. 🙂
Jessica–We’re in a heat wave, it was nearly 100 degress here yesterday, so I’ll be glad for cooler weather.
Bon Voyage and Tally Ho!
Martha–Oh, definately, Tally Ho! We’re off!
You ladies look wondeful!
Mimi–So fun to be together in Toronto!
What a jet setter/traveler you are!! Loved seeing you in all the various places you have been. Wish I was UK bound for this June trip with you!! Guess I will just have to contain myself until the Sept. UK trip. Can’t wait to see the photos of Northern England!
Sharon–September will be here before we know it. Hang tight!
Have a wonderful trip; can’t wait to see lots of pictures!
Libby–Thanks! Hope to get a few posts up while I’m traveling.
I hope you have a great trip to the UK, passed close to where you live today on our way to Athens, a shame we weren’t able to arrange to meet, hopefully another time.
Christina–If you drove down I-85, you were within a few miles of my house. So wish we could have made it work. Have a great time with your friends in Athens. We’ll try another time!
Yes that’s the road we were on. I’m sure we passed the homes of several bloggers that I follow. I think we’ll need to come back.
Have a wonderful time in the UK. I visited many gardens when my kids lived there for three years. So very beautiful. I hope you will share photos of your visits.
Gmapenny–Always have the best intention to share photos, but sometimes dinner and wine get in the way. Hope it happens!
Enjoy your UK trip! I love it over there. I wish we’d had a little more time to get to know each other. I’m glad I found your blog. Cheers!
Beth–Next year! GBF is a great event, I can’t wait to go again.
Marina, you are one busy woman. Have a great trip.
Oops, that’s a typo Marian. Auto correct is a real tug of war. Sometimes helpful, often not.
Susie–Too busy sometimes, but without the writing deadlines, I’ll be able to relax on the trip.
Have a wonderful time in Britain….next time, try some Yellow Book gardens or tucked away places like Bryans Ground http://www.bryansground.co.uk…I’ve never been, but it’s on my list! Mmmm….
Alison–I have the Yellow Book! Thanks for the suggestion re: bryansground.
Hope you have a wonderful trip to England, you are [planning to see some wonderful gardens.
Pauline–So thrilled about this adventure; I can never see too many gardens, especially if they’re in Britain.
Have a great time. Britain is in full bloom!
